The first time I saw anything on this game was some YouTube video of a guy taking on a cyclops. Between the music, the pawns yelling stuff and the guy scaling it I was hooked before ever even playing it. This game is a true work of art in my opinion and has given me some of the best feelings of accomplishment from a video game.
The first time I ran into the ogre in the mines was my first epic fight, clinging on for dear life while it violently flung around. I think my biggest accomplishment was the first time I killed the red dragon in the forest. I don't think I have ever felt a sense of accomplishment like that from any other game. I can't say how many times I died trying or how long the battle was but I was far from being overpowered and it felt like an epic battle at the time. Really felt like I accomplishment something great.
I can't think of any other game that has done that for me. I love this game for what it is. Only thing I would change is the number of skills the warrior has but even on my warrior playthrough it was immensely satisfying when I one shotted a chimera with perfectly timed arc of deliverance to it's face(lion) as it leaped towards me. Maybe the most satisfying thing.
Just wanted to share my love for this game. I still hope we get a sequel one day that doesn't change the a lot of the core combat mechanics.
Merry Christmas! 🎄🎁 Hope you’re all enjoying story time reading my Magnum Dong Opus 2 and the serious deep dive of my technique.
Here I’ll post all the answers to the questions that came up in the questions thread from last week. Enjoy and jack off to your hearts content! 🍆

/u/Bstap04 - When picking a ticker to all in on, what are the main fundamentals/technicals you are looking for once you've achieved PNC?
- Hopefully answered in my technical deep dive post
/u/Reasonable_Ad_7289 - Multiple people have already posted the obvious question of how do you pick your trades. I would like to know how you judge the best entrance and the best exit seeing as we are not investing and this is trading
- Hopefully answered in my technical deep dive post
/u/SSnakeZX - Could you go over your daily routine, when you were trading.
- Wake up by alarm set at market open. Open the phone and take a big gulp and pray for green open. Watch the first 30-60 min while in bed and then start the day. Wank one out. Set up charts and scan news and reddit on personal computer in between meetings on work computer until market close. Have backup plans ready to jump out of meetings in case I need to do an emergency trade. Look at after hours and index futures overnight getting hopium from the slightest green candle. Stay awake until pre-market opens to check the first few candles and then pass out.
/u/deeforthree11 - How do you generate your watch list? What metrics/screens are used? And then how to narrow that watch list even further to go all in? How do you decide to exit a trade to move onto the next one?
- I don’t use screeners, they confuse me. I just add stocks I hear about that sound interesting or indicative of a market I want to keep an eye on.
/u/jimNjuice - What tools do you use?
- Ever single trade was done on my iPhone 7 Plus with the TD Ameritrade app. Usually on my Toto toilet. I use Webull desktop client and TradingView website for watching charts and technical analysis during the day on a second monitor separate from my work setup
/u/OldSoul-YoungLibido - How much do you credit your remarkable achievement to your DD and
... keep reading on reddit ➡Today I found out that the original post I made on WSB last year on December 25, 2020 with 10,413 upvotes and 124 awards has been removed for some reason. This oddly happened 22 days after my perma-ban from WSB on August 8, 2021 so some mod over there must have a huge angry boner to go back and remove all trace of me.
Anyways I thought it was important to preserve the original Magnum Dong Opus in all its retarded glory for posterity, inspiration, and good jack-off material.
Looking back on this post always gives me a giant grin and a rock-hard full mast. 2021 has also treated me well so far, up to $4.8M now making that 137X in ~1.5 years! Since I've been banned from WSB, I primarily post on my Reddit profile which you can follow at https://www.reddit.com/user/SIR_JACK_A_LOT.
I also only post on Reddit, anyone that claims to be me on other social media are fake. I do not have a Twitter, StockTwits, Discord, or anything else.

Receipts
My portfolio swings like an elephant’s dong every month. It’s just numbers on a screen
Total cumulative gains/loss from each stock. Hello my 1 GME share!
Flashback - Christmas 2020
Let’s set the stage. Remember December 2020 ya’ll?
I sold 88,233 shares GME at $15.50 for some random dog toy in a box company. There were no apes yet, just Ryan Cohen buying more shares with hopes of a company turnaround. There were record COVID cases, vaccines were just approved, and there was even a British virus mutation on the way that turned out to be Delta!

Chapter 1: The Squeeze
History was made in January 2021. Ryan Cohen joins the board on Jan 11. GME shoots +12% to $20 and then another +57% to $31. The media picks up the story and Elon Musk tweets “Gamestonk” and to the moon we go! Another +51% to $65. Then +92% to $150. And a deep fuck
... keep reading on reddit ➡His open today — RR took on the opt out debate and did the classic I see both sides thing before throwing Van Lathan (?) under the bus by presenting the insane hypothetical of Joe Burrow opting out before the CFP final, which has never happened, and isn’t part of the debate, which centers around meaningless bowl games.
CFP Final — meaningful.
Rose Bowl — meaningless.
This is his Strawman Magnum Opus. He went so far down the fake situation hypothetical he wound up retroactively pretend calling out ‘his guy’ for an NFL QB not wanting to play in his CFP final, which he played in two years ago and won handily.

To briefly explain what will be an extremely lengthy post, alchemy appears to be a major theme in Elden Ring. Many other games and fantasy works borrow from the rich concepts and symbolism of alchemy and the magnum opus (the Great Work), but the influences in Elden Ring are so pervasive that the inhabitants of the world literally have alchemy references coming out of their asses (i.e., the Gold-Tinged Excrement item). There is a lot to examine, so I’ll cover the major points up front.
- The Elden Ring logo can be compared to alchemy-related diagrams of creation/universal connection such as the tree of life, seen in numerous mythologies, and the Ripley Scroll, which illustrate the achievement of the fabled philosophers’ stone.
- The player’s journey from lowly Tarnished to golden lord corresponds to alchemy’s magnum opus, where lead is literally or metaphorically turned to gold.
- The “bloody wolf” identity of the Tarnished mirrors that of alchemy’s “grey wolf” (antimony), a “cooperative metal” capable of purifying gold.
- Elden Ring’s Godrick and his kingdom Limgrave are symbolically linked to the first stage of the magnum opus, nigredo (darkness, decapitation, lion and serpent images).
- Item descriptions point to lore that correlates with other important processes in alchemy, such as dissolution, separation, and the “chemical wedding.”
- The leaked early concept map >!can be seen as a crucible containing the four classical elements and bearing signs of the seven alchemical operations to complete the magnum opus, as shown in Basil Valentine’s Azoth diagram.!<
- Elden Ring’s fingers-and-hands motif can be connected to an alchemical diagram called The Hand of the Philosopher, which itself can be connected to ancient art objects like the Hand of Sabazius and the Egyptian two-finger amulet.
If you are of the opinion that looking too hard for clues ahead of time can spoil your enjoyment later, viewing any of the posted content is not recommended. If you are interested in deep analysis that doesn’t know when to stop, read on. This post will bring in outside resources to compare with publicly available information. No leaks will be discussed or shown, with the exception of the widely circulated early concept art of the full map (which is too interesting to pass up).
Update: I have taken a closer look at Elden Rin

I was wondering why the strange key location was so finicky to make work, and upon revisiting it I noticed that it's actually you assembling the Bungie logo from the various geometry in the area.

Haven't seen anyone else point this out, hopefully not a repost :)
Edit: I should clarify that it's not the main Bungie logo, it's the seventh column Bungie icon
Like most Swifties, I considered All Too Well to be her greatest work of all time. My Tears Ricochet came close to overtaking it for me, but it wasn't until I fully absorbed Champagne Problems that I can say it is her magnum opus. Share yours and why!
Hey guys, we recently had a discussion on the album AC/DC Live. Was wondering what studio album is your favorite? Would like to do a deep dive and do another episode on discussing the pinacle AC/DC album.
To check out our AC/DC Live discussion check out Otoconia Radio https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctxoIcm56TE&t=2s
I posted this in a different music sub a while back, so I thought I would post a similar recommendation thread here too!
SO basically, this is just to generate discussion and make a quick list of recs for your favourite group (any group; you can do multiple, too)! :)
rules: basically choose a group, and from that group choose which title track song you think is the group of your choice's...
- most popular song (objectively, you can do most popular in the fanbase and most popular outside the fanbase if you want to make that distinction; or don't!)
- your favourite song (totally subjective)
- the song that best represents the group (based on the group's talents and overall concept/sound, which song do you think represents them the best--regardless if it's actually popular or even if you like it or not)
- their magnum opus (this is kind of objective and subjective, but y'know, it's the song that you consider to be the group's masterpiece; )
I'll do an example for IZ*ONE (if you have a different opinion from me, please, feel free to share your list too :))
- Most Popular - La Vie En Rose (it has the most MV views and it's the song people know them the best for)
- My Favourite - Panorama
- Best Represents the Group - Violeta (even though iz*one didn't exactly have this song for their last few comebacks [their -one duology], I think the elegant concept and the perfectly in-synch symmetrical choreography is quintessential iz*one)
- Magnum Opus - Fiesta (idk, there is just something about Fiesta that feels so perfected; it's a perfect iz*one song, and I think it would be a great song even if it wasn't released by iz*one so, that's just how good I think it is haha; plus the whole album really feels like peak iz*one)
edit: I was planning on responding to everyone's lists lol but I have no more time oof; I have read every list though and have put the recs on playlists (and logged the knowledge into my brain so I seem smart when conversations about these groups come up)
Well I don’t think Architects truly fits this description, I do feel like they have so many great songs but none truly stands out as their masterpiece.
Grab the quest from Xur, it will ask you to get 7 strange coins, you can do this by completing the new 6 player activity.
Once that is done you need to complete 3 bounties from the horse. After that grab the key from xur once you reputation level 4
Once you acquire the key, head through the portal to the eternal valley or whatever it's called. Off to the right there will be a weird looking stone at the bottom of the hill. There will be a stone next to it that has a small rectangle sticking out. That is where you insert the key. YOU NEED TO BE LOOKING TOWARD THE STRUCTURE TO THE LEFT OF THE AREA IN ORDER TO GET THE PROMPT.
IMPORTANT: If you aren’t getting the prompt, make sure you are on the right quest step. You can get the key but still need to complete 3 bounties from the horse.
Once you've done that, head to the structure you were just looking at, next to it on the cliff edge there is a little tiny cave that you can enter, do the jumping puzzle and at the end there will be a cryo pod you can open. It will drop an item you need to take to banshee.
Once you've taken the item to banshee, you get the Exotic Sidearm Foreunner. Enjoy Guardians!
Sorry for the low quality guide, if you have questions just ask in the comments and I'll answer! :)

Made various edits to improve the guide and fix grammatical errors. Enjoy folks :)
I would love to know your choices for both album and individual songs.
For me, the entire Shine On You Crazy Diamond suite is truly their best song(s), just beating out Echoes.
For albums, however, I have a tougher time. I feel like it comes down to Dark Side and The Wall, with The Wall taking the edge.
Recently saw a video about this game on YouTube, seems pretty interesting. So is this game worth playing, or should I play something else?
6 days until story time! 🎄🎁
